Chapter 3363: The Younger Generation's Respect for the Elders

Chapter 3352 The filial piety of the younger generation towards the elders

Other children generally no longer receive financial support after they go to college, because colleges can apply for hardship subsidies and student loans, and the state takes care of needy students.

Many subsidized children are very sensible and voluntarily refused the financial aid after being admitted to college. They work-study on their own, plus hardship subsidies and loans, and there is no problem in completing their college studies.

But as soon as He Xiaohong entered college this year, something happened at home. Her father fell down a slope when he was cutting firewood in the mountains and broke his waist. Not only could he not make any money, but he also had to spend a huge amount of medical expenses. He Xiaohong wanted to drop out of school. Fang Tongtong stopped him from working part-time.

Tong Letian still had doubts in his heart and asked, "Which university did He Xiaohong go to? Is it in Pingjiang?"

"No, it's Hangzhou Normal University, not far from Pingjiang."

"You didn't go see her?"

"How can I not have time? There are so many cases recently and I am very busy. Let's go see her when I have time." Fang Tongtong actually wanted to visit He Xiaohong and wanted to know if the girl still had any difficulties in life.

She was worried that He Xiaohong was too frugal.

"Next time you call me, we will go together." Tong Letian smiled.

"Okay, we'll talk about it then. Let's go eat, I'm starving to death."

Fang Tongtong touched her belly. She had a strong digestion ability and was always hungry before meal time. She was so hungry that Tong Letian followed her, "Let's go eat grilled fish. I'll treat you."

"No, Xiaobao will treat me to dinner in the evening. I can just eat whatever I want at noon. You don't need to treat me."

Fang Tongtong refused, and Tong Letian's eyes darkened, and he half-jokingly said, "I haven't offended you, have I? You refuse my treat every time, so we can be considered childhood sweethearts after all!"

It's Shi Xiaobao again.

It was okay to take Shi Xiaobao's pocket money, but he never agreed to his invitation to dinner. Tong Letian felt a little sour and annoyed Shi Xiaobao to death.

This guy is the biggest stumbling block in his pursuit of his girlfriend.

If he hadn't known that Shi Xiaobao called Fang Tongtong Aunt, he would have suspected that this guy had evil intentions towards Fang Tongtong.

Fang Tongtong rolled her eyes, "Who is your childhood sweetheart? We are just classmates.

I'm an independent woman and I can make my own money, so why do I need your treat? "

"Then how can you accept Shi Xiaobao's pocket money?" Tong Letian blurted out.

Fang Tongtong was stunned for a moment, and became angry because of embarrassment. "Can it be the same? Xiaobao calls me aunt. He gave me money to honor his elders, do you know?"

Tong Letian smiled and said nothing more. He felt more at ease and a little proud.

When he and Fang Tongtong get married, Shi Xiaobao will have to call him uncle. It feels good to think about it!

"Tongtong, how are Shi Xiaobao's family related to your family?" Tong Letian asked.

He had always only known that Shi Xiaobao was called Aunt Fang Tongtong, but he really didn't know the specific relationship.

"Shi Xiaobao's grandma calls me grandma and aunt, and Shi Xiaobao's father calls me dad and uncle. What's the relationship?"

Fang Tongtong automatically omitted the word "expression", which made Tong Letian feel more at ease. It seemed that Fang Tongtong's father was an old man, so there was a big age gap between him and his siblings.

In the evening, Shi Xiaobao and Fang Tongtong ate grilled fish together. It was not a particularly luxurious restaurant, but it was the best in the city. Fang Tongtong knew the food in Pingjiang City well, and Shi Xiaobao ate with her and knew a lot.

"Delicious."

Fang Tongtong was very happy to eat. She ate grilled fish with milk tea, so her life was not wasted.

Shi Xiaobao doesn't eat much. He's not very interested in grilled fish. He usually eats meals specially prepared in strict accordance with nutritional recipes. They are light, less oily and less salty. He doesn't have much pursuit of delicious food, as long as he is full with enough nutrition. That’s it.
